Acupuncture for Stop Smoking

Smoking cessation is a popular treatment with acupuncture.  It usually involves acu-points on the ear and there may be some other fine needles placed elsewhere on the body as well, may with mild electro-stimulation.  Ear pallets or press pins are also placed on the ear after each treatment for continued stimulation. 

These points help to balances your nervous system and stimulate the respiratory system to CLEANSE the lungs of nicotine,  ELIMINATES your CRAVINGS for tobacco, and thus the patients will have less desire to smoke, able to breathe deeper with less withdrawal symptoms after treatment.  Chinese herbs may also prescribe to aid your transition into a healthier state.  Required number of treatment for total abstinence depends on your addiction.  We start with four treatments as a session that usually proves sufficient for many people.
